Giffords interview to air on shooting anniversary

TUCSON, Ariz. — A TV interview with former Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband will air on Tuesday, the second anniversary of the Tucson shooting rampage that killed six and wounded Giffords and 12 others.

ABC says Giffords and retired astronaut Mark Kelly will speak during the interview about a new initiative they’re launching. The network didn’t specify what the initiative would aim to do. A call to a Giffords spokeswoman wasn’t immediately returned Sunday.
